As always at INN SITU, the concert format is a specially developed response to the exhibition: The focus this time has been conceived by the Bregenz-born singer.

She is one of the leading sopranos in the area of sacred Baroque music. A strong focus of her repertory also lies in the broad spectrum from Baroque to the late Romantic period as well as Lieder. Miriam Feuersinger has performed with such conductors as Jordi Savall, Ton Koopman, or Christoph Prégardien, as well as in various constellations including the Freiburg Baroque Orchestra, Collegium Vocale Gent, or Holland Baroque. She has won the German Record Critics’ Award and the OPUS KLASSIK Award, among others.  

 In their reaction to Tamas Dezső’s depictions of plants, the three musicians address questions of finiteness, slowness, and attentiveness in the work of three very different composers. Their contribution spans four centuries of music history, from the Baroque period with Bach to the Romantic music of Schubert to the twentieth century with Astor Piazzolla. The diversity of the enormous, seemingly sacred diptychs by the Hungarian photographer is reflected in the trio’s unusual formation: harpsichord, accordion, and the human voice.

She ranks as one of the most outstanding accordionists in the world. In addition to original works for her instrument, she also plays piano literature by Haydn, Mozart, and Rameau, and combines classical, jazz, contemporary music, and improvisation. With the release of selected piano concertos by Joseph Haydn on Sony Classical she became the first accordionist in the label’s history. As an artist with international charisma and a pioneer of her field she was awarded the Swiss Music Prize in 2021. Her CD Pure Bach won the OPUS KLASSIK Award in 2022.
